Did you say Moo?

Our art work from interchange is finally completed and they look stunning! 

Using collaging as our medium the children drew a farm animals face. Demonstrating lines, texture and shape , which are elements of art. 

For closer inspection come into our library, LC 9&10's cloakbays (mind the mess) or your child's classroom. 

Pukeko Presents on Friday 7 June

Pukeko Presents on Friday 7 June was run by Mr D and child

Back Row: Isla K, Max P and Hazel G. Front Row: Madeleine McC, Isabel V and Charlie F

ren from LC9. Lots of children shared their great Autumn poems. Some awesome children received Pukeko team awards and it was great to see that lots of them were for a respectful attitude and great manners - way to go, Pukekos!!!

Our door is fixed!

Our art interchange had a strange interruption that we couldn't resist asking questions to the workers. 

The men were using a gas torch to remelt the harden glue. The bubbles on the door was trapped gas caused by the glue. 

Now it's smooth and looks great. 

Drawing farm animals

Brooke is proud of her pig drawing because she saw some fur on the pig and she used shading. 

Jorja likes her horse shape and size. 

Dwight is proud of his goats eyes and ears because they look realistic. 

Isla likes her foal because she practiced how to draw the ears. 

It was Isabella's first time drawing a fawn and she is proud of her very cute fawns ears. 

Week 3 Pukeko Presents

Our recipients of our Pukeko presents certificates. 

Cross country certificates were handed out to children who came 1st, 2nd and 3rd in our Pukeko cross country held a couple of weeks ago. 

We also had some year 4's that played rugby as part of rugby fun day at Ilam fields in town. 

Well done to all of you! 

Cross Country

Cross Country certificates will be handed at our Pukeko Presents at 24th May at 9.45.  Everyone is welcome to come along and cheer on our place getters.

Stay tuned for photos!

Wet days can be fun!

Cam and Ryan are learning how to play Mancala. Some strategy is needed to get gems (or marbles) into your pot. You want as many in your pot to win. The game ends when one side has emptied all their holes.

We love dressing up, even our wet day buddies joined in. They didn't need much encouragement. 

Rugby Funday

On Friday 17th May the Year 4's went to Rugby Funday at the Ilam University grounds.  West Melton Blue was coached by Gavin Summerfield and managed by Andrea Wright and managed a win, a loss and a draw.  The West Melton Yellow was coached by John Beuth and managed by Amanda Sharpe.  We just got finished before the rain.  Special thanks to all the parents who showed up to support the teams.
